Too Late, Trotsky is part blog, part journal, and completely pointless.

First time here?
Here's the introduction to this blog, what it is, and why it's here.

If you're here through her twitter account, she suggests heading over here.

Several Bad Puns Later...

  • Alysha: Let's do something Friday, guys.
  • Me: I'd love to, but I'll be on I-95 South.
  • Alysha: Heading where?
  • Me: Maryland. For a wedding. More like MARRY-land, AM I RIGHT?
  • Alysha: Oy.
  • Me: You can punch me in the face for that next time you see me. I'm trying to cure my addiction to horrible puns.
  • (Radio silence)
  • Me: ...Speaking of which, I applied for a job in California - a gold prospector. Really. It didn't pan out, though.
  • Alysha: Oh my god Kathryn. I'm using your real name because I'm that disappointed in you.
  • Me: I CAN'T STOP. HELP ME.
  • (More radio silence)
  • Me: I applied for another job at a blanket factory, but the company folded. I even submitted these horrible things to a Record-Journal contest. About ten of them, actually. I was hoping one would win, but no pun in ten did.
  • Alysha: I'm going to go ahead and turn off my phone now.
  • Me: I'm done. I think it's over. I get these attacks. Like a seizure.

Rapture Calendar

  • Kathryn: This says "Rapture, 5/19/2011." [Everyone looks at Darren] ...Today is the 21st.

Cardboard Housing Market

  • Katie: I'll send you my mailing address when I find out if I'm living in an actual house or a cardboard box.
  • Me: Cardboard houses should have mail slots. When I committed to my major, I checked out the cardboard housing market.
  • Me: Of course, the problem with a cardboard-based market is that it collapses every time it rains.

  • It's my class, and I made a promise.

Monsanto

  • everyone knows farmers need proper alien protocol manuals
  • right!? you'd think. It's like - Monsanto: "here are your soybean seeds...and your alien handbook. Have fun." Farmer: "uhhh k."
  • I bet the farmers are more confused about the troll in the suit giving them magic beans.

Friendship.

  • and now I'm going to DIE DIE DIE DIE
  • Okay, slow it down there, Bottom.
  • Guh.
  • If we were on the Oregon Trail I'd give you ipecac and rest thee days.

Last Night

  • Who were you making out with last night?
  • Some kid named Anthony. Or Ryan. Or some ordinary name like that.
  • Good job, you don't even know his name.
  • Am I supposed to? Sorry, I didn't realize I was married to him.

Announcement

  • Me: Yo, what's this wacky announcement thing this afternoon?
  • Katie: I think we made the Princeton Review.
  • Me: Boring. Princeton is the Chicago Cubs of the Ivy League.
  • Katie: I don't know if that's true, though.
  • Me: No, it's true. Princeton's in New Jersey. It blows.
  • Katie: No, I mean if that's the announcement.
  • Me: Oh. Fuck Princeton anyway.
  • Katie: Truth.
  • Growing up near Yale and Katie (somewhat) near Cornell gives us the right to say these things. I can say I will probably never attend an Ivy League school unless my work ethic decides it feels like finally kicking in. But nevertheless: bulldog, bulldog, bow wow wow!

To the roommates who do not replace the toilet paper roll in my apartment.

Why one should replace the roll of toilet paper

It has come to my attention that several people in this apartment have neglected to replace the roll of toilet paper onto the roll attached to the cabinet. In my opinion, these people are COMMUNISTS who neglect the American dream.

The American dream itself is a curious thing that can mean many things to many people. However, for those who do not replace the toilet paper roll, the American dream consists of bombing heavily populated areas and committing acts of terrorism so profound, that the Department of Homeland Security deems this group of insurgents a Class 1 threat.

Under the Patriot Act, passed in 2001 by President George W. Bush, those who do not replace toilet paper rolls are considered “terrorist organizations,” even if the culprits are individuals with no ties to Al Queda or other insurgent groups.

It has come to the attention of this roommate that those who do not replace the toilet paper roll should therefore be investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security.

Thank you.

Kill Your Television, Volume 1

The television in our apartment broke over break, so instead, me and my two roommates have no other option than to engage in stimulating conversation to entertain us.

Tonight’s Topics:

  1. Can vegans eat human semen?
    Verdict: Depends on whether the individual believes the human to be an animal that is exploited.
  2. What is the likelihood of the Zombie apocalypse (Z-Paw)?
    Verdict: High.
  3. How would the Z-Paw happen?
    Verdict: Through a degenerative brain disease, like bovine spongiform encephalopathy and the threat of a mutation in prion protiens that cause the disease.
  4. What do my roommates (Z-Paw amateurs) need to do to be prepared?
    Verdict: Be aware at all times, wear practical clothes that would allow one to be active if the Z-Paw were to occur, have a plan, keep simple objects that could be used as weapons accessible.
  5. How does one make anti-zombie weapons from common dorm-room items?
    Verdict: An example - one can make a blade or shiv from printer paper, a mirror, a piece of plastic, and duct tape.
  6. What are necessary everyday items in the event of Z-Paw?
    Verdict: Car keys, a pocket knife, a canteen or something that can hold and keep clean water, first aid kit, raincoat, comfortable shoes, any kind of ‘survival gear,’ shotgun, etc, etc.
  7. Is anorexia technically cannibalism?
    Verdict: Yes, because cannibalism is the consumption of human flesh. By not putting any calories into the body, the anorexic’s body begins to consume itself in the form of muscle in order to survive.
  8. Would you eat human flesh if it was in cheeseburger form?
    Verdict: Depends on how the meat is procured and whether or not toxins within the normal human body could be removed via cooking.
  9. If a centaur and a human conceived a child, what form would the child take, human, centaur, or bizarre hybrid?
  10. Verdict: It depends on which is the female. If a human female and a male centaur conceived, the human female would have no means to birth a child that is part centaur. Also, since we do not know the dominant and recessive traits of centaur genetics, there is no way to determine the outcome.
  11. Why are chicken eggs so big when human eggs are microscopic?
    Verdict:We should probably go to sleep.
